Aigues-Mortes

this is an ancient fort

salt farms

walling along the ramparts

I'm walking all the way around the city on the walls that you see in the distance.

I can see all of the rooftops below inside the walls

outside they are setting up for the bulls and you can see the salt farms that are pink

gargoyles

I think that is a pile of salt

This is where we were riding eariler today

gladiator weapons - this was Mark's favorite part

I'm in the highest row where the slaves used to sit. Great view of the city from here.

riding through olive trees and vinyards on the way to aigues-mortes

horses on the other side of the canal

Many of the roads were dirt but it was fine on our bikes with front and rear shock absorbers

no one on the road except dragon flies and birds. There were a few boats going down the canal.
We are riding on the towpath. The path that they used to pull the barges up the river.
